The Crossing of the Paths
By MMM/AJ
Part III: Of Darkness and Light

A/N: Like Part II, I plan on posting this one in chunks as well. This is Chunk THIRTEEN. Ehehe, sorry this took so long. I had run fresh out of ideas for this for a time and it took some serious thinking, as well as a couple of good inspiring movies and music to pry the writer's block out of my complicated mesh of a mind. But here is the next chunk, so enjoy!

Chapter XXXII

As Mewtwo once more emerged into consciousness, he found himself in a familiar environment. He felt himself lying relaxed on a soft, smooth mattress under a warm blanket and resting on a cushy pillow. As he opened his eyes, he saw the stone ceiling of a room inside the Castle and stood up. He took in his surroundings and saw the recognizable lavish room that Zelda had afforded to him the day after her speech. He had once again been taken back in time just over a week. He stood up and walked out of the room as his mind slowly tried to recall and comprehend all the previous events that had happened. He walked out of the room and into the hall, the rising morning sun was absent and no rays shone in through the narrow windows along the corridor. And as Mewtwo's mind slowly awoke, he knew one thing was for sure; he needed to seek Zelda's council. He didn't care if he was destabilizing the time stream further by telling Zelda of all the events that had never happened thanks to his time travels, he had already done enough damage by telling her his complete life story anyway. And he was becoming cavalier in his attitude towards the continuum now since it seemed to refuse to collapse no matter how much he twisted it.

As soon as he located Zelda in the Castle, Mewtwo made her drop what she was doing to come to the Castle Courtyard and talk to him. He proceeded to tell her of all he had gone through, the multiple invasions, his trip through space, and Lightest's fall. He began to become more anxious as he recanted the memories. He was trying to think of a new solution as he retold them, but once again he was out of ideas. He did not have a plan C, and as he finished telling Zelda his tales it became blatantly obvious to him and he felt horribly sickened by the futility of it all. And then, Zelda spoke to him with a calmness and an answer that finally caused a true shining hope to come through.

"You have exhausted many plans now, and I see that the Triforce of Courage has tested your mind and willpower to their very limits. And now, I do believe the tests are complete. It gave you the energy you needed several times in dire situations, and I am sure that this is a sign of acceptance by the Triforce. I think you have passed your test. The time has come now, you must reunite the three Triforce Pieces." Zelda said.

"What will happen? Will I gain ultimate power, will I be granted immortality, what will this task accomplish?" Mewtwo asked.

"No-one exactly knows, since the Triforce has never been reunited since Ganondorf's vile hand caused it to split. But all our legends have said that the one who gains the whole Triforce will be granted one wish. And based on the goodness of their heart and spirit, a new age of good or evil will come unto the land by the gods' judgment." Zelda said.

Mewtwo stood and thought a moment. He could use this wish in several ways, he could undo all the negative things in his past, he could heal all the woes that have been done to Hyrule, or he could use it to purify himself of evil and to destroy the dark essence within him that would become Darkest in the future. He nodded his head and spoke.

"Then this shall be my task. I will reform the Triforce and use the wish to destroy the darkness within me!" Mewtwo said.

"So it is, and it is a good plan indeed. The first step should be that I give you the Triforce of Courage which is in my hand now. Come, follow me to the Temple of Time and we will perform the passage ceremony." Zelda said, and then turned and began walking off. Mewtwo followed eagerly.

Walking through the quiet, untouched streets of Hyrule Castle Town while civilians still swarmed inside felt almost strange after the imprinting memories that the invasion experiences had left. He followed the elegant princess through the streets and the commoners parted and bowed as she passed. They looked on Mewtwo like those looked suspiciously upon a fox who has yet to raid the chicken coop. Since his heroic deeds had not taken place anymore, they thought little of him. As they entered the Temple, Zelda stopped just before the pedestal that contained the three Spiritual Stones.

"Now kneel, take my right hand in your right hand and close your eyes, I will give you the Triforce of Wisdom." Zelda said and knelt down in the stone.

Mewtwo held Zelda's hand and closed his eyes as told, and Zelda's hand felt hot and sweaty, and it shook a small amount. She felt nervous, maybe a bit scared, and Mewtwo was unsure what would happen. Zelda slowly whispered an incantation in the Ancient Dialect and held her left hand to her forehead. And a few moments later, a wave of electric pain washed over both of them. Mewtwo felt the Triforce of Courage in his hand suddenly sear with pain, and Zelda's arm was filled with the same sensation as well. They both were jolted rigid as electricity swept from the Triforce pieces and into their bodies. Visible sparks radiated around their joined hands as the two Triforce Pieces touched essences and exchanged energies. And then, the Triforce of Courage left Zelda's hand, traveled up her body and appeared on her forehead. The energies of the two artifacts controlled both of their carriers, and Zelda and Mewtwo swung their heads back. And, to complete the process, their heads then rocked forward and bashed together in an extremely painful head but. The Triforce of Courage was then embedded into Mewtwo's skull, and as both he and Zelda passed into unconsciousness it traveled through his body and appeared on his right hand, right next to its brother.

Chapter XXXIII

Mewtwo and Zelda were found in the Temple unconscious by three priests who were arriving to pray. They were immediately taken to the Castle's hospital and treated for head injuries. The priests were shocked to see what had happened, it had been described in the legends of the Triforce, Zelda had passed her piece on to Mewtwo, and the only way for the process to be completed was for a violent head bash. They nursed the two back to health with red potions, Zelda woke up feeling healthy and new, but for some reason the red potion could not rouse Mewtwo from his comatose state. As the energies from the two Triforce pieces interacted and merged, they had suddenly taken a great toll on his energy, draining his life force like a vampire. He would survive, but it would take days of bed rest.

And days did indeed pass, dark days with the sky blotted out by the Empire's clouds. Mewtwo recovered slowly but surely, color returned to his skin and he breathed more regularly with each passing day. But no matter how many red potions insisted on giving him, he still would not wake up. Zelda remembered in her talk with Mewtwo about his tales of the Imperial invasion, and how it would be a week and two days after her announcement to Hyrule. After four days passed and Mewtwo remained in his coma, she began to fear that he would not regain himself in time to travel to the Sacred Realm and reclaim the Triforce of Power from Ganondorf. The people became restless, riots broke out, and as one full week had passed and Mewtwo began stirring, Zelda finally reached her wit's end.

It might have been due to the lack of the calmness and cool thinking that the Triforce of Wisdom had granted her, but Zelda became rash in her decisions, as well as cross, irritable and mean spirited. As she desperately plotted her final plan, one man was there to try and tell her of her folly.

"You will never make it." Rauru said, walking into Zelda's bedroom as she clumsily rifled through her things.

Zelda practically growled in response. "Do you see any other choice old man? Our only hope is tossing and turning in a comatose dreamland and we only have three more days to live! I must go into the Sacred Realm myself, so that I might take the Triforce of Power and merge it with the other two pieces that Mewtwo has!" Zelda slammed a clothes trunk closed as if to put her foot down.

"Listen to reason! Do you remember the time when Ganondorf trapped you and used you as bait for Link? You could not even resist his power even with your piece of the Triforce. No doubt his power has increased during his imprisonment, and without your piece of the Triforce your power is only a quarter of what it was.." Rauru said coolly.

Zelda pulled on a pair of leather gauntlets and scowled at Rauru. "So you would have me sit back and watch as my kingdom is obliterated and my people massacred? I don't care if I fail or not at this task, at least I will not have sat idle and let fate play out its cruel tricks without putting up a fight!"

"You're wasting your life when it could be used to defend the castle and help maintain the barrier." Rauru said, still not flustered by Zelda's blatant insolence.

"Did I not tell you what Mewtwo told me? Even with the help of an entire armada of advanced technological ships could we survive their onslaught, it is pointless to try and turtle under the barrier without doing anything else!" Zelda pulled a pair of tough boots on as she spoke.

"I believe in what he said, but I also believe that the gods have something in store for us if we piously defend our cause down to every last man and woman." Rauru said, perfectly serene.

"You're a fool." Zelda hissed. Rauru twitched his eyebrow and controlled his urge to slap the girl. "What have the gods done for us? What have they done for all the worlds that Darkest has absorbed an annihilated? What have they done Mewtwo, and what have they done for me?" Zelda nearly screamed.

This time Rauru didn't hold back, he reached out and slapped Zelda hard across the face. "Foolish girl! If you insult the gods we're sure to die horrible deaths! I'm not sure if it is fear or the lack of the Triforce of Wisdom in you, but your leader's insight has left you. It is a suicidal path that you seek!"

"I do not care! There is no way I will stand by and watch my people die at leisure. I am the queen and I will have you and the other sages open the door to the Sacred Realm for me!"

"I will not do it." Rauru said stoutly, stomping his girthy foot on the plush rug of the royal floor.

"I will have you hanged for treason!" Zelda shrieked at him.

"You would hang one of the six sages? The people would override your royal authority and disobey before hanging one who was responsible for the creation of Hyrule!" Raur said, anger becoming apparent in his tone.

"Then I would kill you myself!" Zelda cried, drawing a dagger and leaping at Rauru.

"ENOUGH!" Rauru blasted at the top of his lungs. He tossed Zelda aside with one burly arm and snapped the dagger in two with his other hand. "You have become unfit to rule and I am hereby removing you from the throne due to mental instability!"

Zelda cowered on the floor, and suddenly burst to tears. She gripped the carpet in her hands and ripped it up and apart in her hysterics. Rauru looked down at her and sighed heavily, his anger gone, replaced by empathy. He knew that the strain of leading a people into a catastrophe this big was hard, but without her Triforce of Wisdom Zelda could not bear it. She completely broke down there on the floor, suddenly missing her late father and wondering why it would all end this way. Rauru picked her up with ease in his great arms and placed her on the broad Royal bed. She gripped the sheets like the ledge of a cliff and sobbed into the soft fabric, her mind slowly letting go all of the pressure the world had laid on her. Rauru then took off of her person the keys to all the doors in the castle, left the bedroom and locked it behind him. He knew Zelda was too unstable to even try to leave, but he wanted to make sure she wouldn't do anything radical. He then returned to the chamber of Sages and resumed stewing in his own pot of doubt and fear. Even the wisest sage could falter in times as horrible as these.

Chapter XXXIV

Mewtwo slowly crept back to consciousness in a soft, comfortable bed, and his groggy mind wondered idly if he had been taken back in time again. But as he opened his eyes and saw the Castle's infirmary around him, he knew it to be untrue. The room was dark and deserted, not a sound met the air except his breathing. He sat up and looked around in the inky darkness, and then something caught his attention. Two glowing symbols were shimmering on the back of his right hand. One was green and the other blue, and they were both triangles of a gold like material. He remembered the ceremony he had gone through with Zelda and his mind suddenly came to full awareness. He felt a need to speak with her and be with her, and he wondered how long he had been asleep. He walked out of the infirmary and into the castle, searching for the princess. Oddly, the Castle seemed to be void of all inhabitants, not a soul was to be seen or heard.

As Mewtwo ran down the staircases of the Castle a chilling sound met his ears and he stopped cold. The bell tower of the Temple of Time began to toll. It sang a hollow cry, distinctly feeling as if it were funeral bells. Mewtwo's blood ran cold as he remembered that the bells had rung during the invasion and he rushed to a window and looked out over the field. Strangely enough, it was intact, there were no craters from plasma bombardments or explosively landing dropships. He scanned the entire area until he finally found the reason for the bells, a funeral procession was traveling through the main castle gates and through the city. He sighed with relief that the invasion had not started and ran back down the stairs to find out what was going on and who had died.

As he came up behind the trailing end of the funeral procession, his feet stepped on rose petals that had been strewn across the stone behind the silent marchers. He passed by the end and found the coffin moving along, with four royal guards carrying banners with the symbol of the royal family. The coffin was draped with the Hylian flag and was covered with flowers. Mewtwo approached one of the color carriers and asked him who had died.

The guard only sighed in sadness, holding back tears. "Our noble Princess, this time last night, in despair and fear, did thrust a dagger unto her bosom and fell dead upon her own bed. She belongs to the gods now."

It was as if a train had hit Mewtwo. He suddenly stopped in his tracks and the procession began to pass him by. He stood there, completely blown away by horror and grief. He was beyond words, beyond thought, his mind locked up like a computer with a crippling virus. As the procession disappeared inside the temple and the bell's tolling fell quiet, he still could no nothing but stand and stare. The passage of time and all other aspects of reality no longer found their ways into his mind, he did not feel or see an hour pass as a cold, mournful wind cut through the streets of the Castle town. And as guards began to leave the Temple as the funeral ended, something in his mind finally snapped. His cognitive mind receded into the ether as the emotion surged his system and a blood red filled his eyes, blinding all other sight. The people of Hyrule turned and looked as he suddenly screamed in rage and sorrow. And then, he flew up into the air, out away from the Castle at astonishing speed. The people pointed and stared as he streaked away through the sky, his energy trail blood red instead of blue.

The two pieces of the Triforce radiated bright light as Mewtwo's emotions propelled him hundreds of miles per hour through the sky. He flew and flew, not caring where he went or how long he flew. Tears of rage and pain fell down through the air behind him as he passed above mountains, forests and oceans, aimlessly venting his feelings. As he flew, memories of Kalana's death mingled with his imaginations of Zelda stabbing herself, and his emotions burned and intensified. He saw the two of his closest friends, dying in horrible ways, and as he did he pictured the one responsible. Darkest's grinning face was superimposed over the death images of Kalana and Zelda, and the deepest, blackest rage Mewtwo had ever felt formed inside him. He suddenly craved to have Darkest's head impaled on a blade, to feel his warm blood soaked organs in his hands, and to then burn every last trace of him in the lavas of Death mountain. He wanted to watch the painful deaths of every last Centurion, and the mangling and destruction of every ship in their fleet, and to have all of their heads as trophies of vengeance in the halls of Hyrule Castle. His rage and energy flew out of control as he flew, and bolts of red and black lightning jumped down from him and caught landscapes on fire. And then, a suddenly familiar feeling jolted Mewtwo's entire consciousness like being pulled apart on the rack. He felt himself suddenly beginning to separate, the same feeling he had gotten when Darkest had tried to initiate the separation on top of his dark tower. And immediately, he remembered the dire consequences of letting his emotions go too far and his rage suddenly boiled down to a manageable level. The feeling left him and his mind and body returned to their natural synchronization.

Mewtwo floated down out of the air and sat on a small stream's bank. He panted with a sudden feeling of fatigue and slight fear. His rage had nearly taken control and separated him right then and there. It was a sobering message to him, this was why Darkest and Lightest still existed in the Time Stream, because he could never truly control his emotions to a full extent.

Chapter XXXV

It was a long trip for Mewtwo to return to Hyrule Castle, in his blind emotional state he had flown hundreds of miles away and its was difficult to find his way back. He didn't even notice it when the two Triforce pieces did not pain him during his flight back, he was too absorbed in his own melancholy and thought. It was dark by the time he arrived back, and the Castle was under a drape of despair and mourning. As he landed back in the center of the Castle town, the streets were empty and lonely, and the sounds of quiet sobbing came from every house. He walked sullenly into the Temple of Time and found Rauru standing there alone, staring down at the Master Sword in its stone pedestal.

"I will tell you what happened." Rauru said, turning and facing Mewtwo. "But before I do I want you to remember that it was her decisions that brought about her end, not yours. You should not feel responsible for her death."

"I don't, what I feel is the need to complete the task she laid out for me before leaving this plane." Mewtwo replied solemnly.

"Very well then. When Zelda gave you the Triforce of Wisdom, you both fell into deep comas. She was able to be revived with a red potion, but for some reason you were beleaguered in bed for a much longer time despite the fact that we gave you many red potions. You slept for a week, and with every passing day, a little bit of Zelda's sanity slipped away. It got to the point where she wanted to venture into the Sacred Realm by herself and take the Triforce of power from Ganondorf himself, but I wouldn't allow it. I foolishly locker her in her room, and in there she used the broken tip of her dagger to kill herself." Rauru said, straining to keep himself from weeping. He had felt he was responsible for Zelda's death.

"Then I must do what she could not, you must open the door to the Sacred Realm so I can reclaim the Triforce of Power!" Mewtwo said, feeling new purpose welling within him.

"Your determination is admirable, but if you walk into this battle unprepared Ganondorf will have your head on a spear. He has been gaining power during his imprisonment, the other Sages and I can feel it. Should you face him in all out combat, the battle would be fierce, but I am afraid he would most likely win. You need to prepare, and to plan out a course of action." Rauru said.

"What is there to plan? I will turn his brain matter into a black hunk of carbon and take the Triforce for myself!" Mewtwo said.

"Do not think so rashly! It is this impetuousness that drove Zelda to end herself!
If you thought for a moment, you would remember that the whole Triforce tests the one who touches it! If your mind is soiled by rage, greed, despair or any other imbalanced at the time you reform the Triforce, it will split again and you will lose 2 of the pieces. You must come into the battle with a balanced mind, and not let anything cause you undue emotions."

Mewtwo sighed. He stood there and thought a moment. "So we have three days left until the Invasion? That certainly should be enough time to defeat Ganondorf and reform the Triforce."

"You must use this time to prepare yourself, you cannot allow anything negative to enter your mind at the time of the Triforce's reformation, and to clean your mind takes much mental training. I would normally give one a three week training time, but because we are so short on time, I must teach you with haste." Rauru finished.

And teach him with haste Rauru did. It was not long after they had finished this conversation in the Temple of Time when Rauru took Mewtwo into the Chamber of Sages and began teaching him the art of clearing his mind. He explained that besides allowing Mewtwo to reform the Triforce without it splitting, it would also drastically improve his perception, fighting skills, and ability to make decisions. But as the lessons began, Mewtwo found that it was not an easy goal to achieve.

"Empty your mind of all thoughts." Rauru said calmly. "Sit and be, and yet do not be. Concentrate on nothingness and everything, let yourself merge with the world around you, and you will find you are much more in tune with it than before."

Mewtwo sat on the floor of the Chamber, trying his best not to think. But small things, like an itch on his arm and a sudden sneeze broke his concentration. A pang of hunger and a cramp in his leg from sitting too long ruined his concentration completely.

"Do not let your body influence your mind!" Rauru snapped when Mewtwo suddenly coughed and broke his concentration again. "You must let all influences, whether they be negative emotions, an itch, or stabbing pain, pass through you unnoticed as easily as wind passes through a screen door. Let your mind drift away from your body and become one with nothingness."

Mewtwo sighed and tried again. He concentrated as hard as he could on ignoring all outside influences, and his muscles slowly relaxed and his body started to feel separate from him. And then a finger tapped him on the shoulder and he reflexively turned, opened his eyes and looked. Rauru scowled and withdrew his hand.

"Wrong!" He shouted, scowling at Mewtwo. "In order to fully attain the clear mind, you must not let your reflexes and instinctual reactions interrupt you! Ganondorf will do a number of things to corrupt your mind's clear state, you must learn to ignore them."

"What if he should attack me physically, or hurl an orb of darkness at me?" Mewtwo asked.

"Silence! Do not speak! Once you have reached the ideal state it will become clear to you. Now, try again." Rauru said harshly.

Mewtwo felt as though he had been whacked over the head with the proverbial ruler. He painfully brushed aside his frustration and relaxed again. As the minutes passed he felt himself slowly starting to drift away from the Chamber of Sages, and a sudden smack on the back of his head returned him to reality.

"Do not fall asleep!" Rauru roared. "You are completely missing the point of this exercise! The goal is for you to be more in tune with the world, not oblivious to it! Must I completely redefine the state to you again?"

"It would be much easier to understand if you would quit talking in riddles!" Mewtwo snarled, his anger flustered.

"Do not speak!" Rauru blared. "The state of having a cleared mind is a riddle itself when compared to regular consciousness! By eliminating all extraneous emotions and physical sensations you can become more aware of the environment around you and you can think more clearly and make decisions easier. There, is that a clear enough explanation for you?"

Mewtwo did not speak, but his mind was appeased somewhat and he appreciated that Rauru had spelled it out for him.

"Good, you did not speak, you're starting to get the idea. Now, this time, relax and close your eyes, but try to concentrate on the environment around you. Listen to every sound intently, feel every air current on your skin, and smell every scent no matter how small or insignificant. Do not allow yourself to become so relaxed that you begin to doze off, allow your concentration on the environment around you to keep you aware."

Mewtwo followed Rauru's advice, and focused as hard as he could on his hearing. The slow trickling of the water that flowed along the walls of the Chamber of Sages was smooth and easing, and it followed an easily recognizable pattern. Rauru's breathing was slow and relaxed, and he could almost feel Rauru's breath moving through the air. He almost felt bored by the complete solitude, but he tried as best as he could to put that extraneous emotion away from himself. And when Rauru suddenly shifted his feet, the normally almost inaudible sound was as loud as a firecracker to Mewtwo's attuned hearing. The movement of Rauru shuffling his feet also disturbed the air a slight bit, and Mewtwo could feel it and could smell the must off of Rauru's robes. All of these senses put together gave him an extremely accurate reading on where Rauru was standing, it was as if he could see him without actually seeing him. And then Rauru decided to test Mewtwo perception and threw a lightning fast kick at Mewtwo's sitting form. Mewtwo easily felt and heard it coming, and jumped to the side swiftly as Rauru's large foot appeared where he had been sitting.

"I'm sorry, I should not have let an outside influence affect me." Mewtwo said, suddenly falling back out of his cleared state.

"Actually, that was supposed to happen. You asked what you should do should Ganondorf attack you when you are in a clear state, and you have just answered your own question. Reactions to such things as itches or distractions are detrimental to your concentration, but necessary reactions such as dodging direct attacks are necessary. You have learned the most important lesson of the clear minded state, to eliminate only the unnecessary reflexes. Now, sit back down and clear your mind again, I have another lesson for you to learn." Rauru said.

Mewtwo felt somewhat proud, it was an injection of confidence that he needed. He resisted his urge to smile and sat again. Replicating how he had been earlier. He concentrated on feeling the air, hearing every sound, and smelling every scent. He could faintly smell the aroma of onions and deduced that Rauru must have eaten a dish with onions in it earlier. As he became completely attuned with the physical environment, a sudden thought intruded on his mind.

"You're doing pretty well, aren't you? You should be proud." A thought whispered in his mind, and Mewtwo suddenly smiled to himself and was about to reaffirm it proudly when Rauru's hand smacked him squarely across the back of his head. It was more of a shock than an annoyance, he had not heard or felt it coming at all.

"You've made another glaring error, you've let a single thought and emotion distract you! I telepathically spoke to you and it was all I needed to do to corrupt your cleared mind and get past your senses!" Rauru said. "Now, try again!"

Mewtwo again felt like he had been slapped with a ruler, but managed to push aside his emotions and return to his calmed state. He found his concentration on the environment and locked onto it with an iron will. He heard Rauru shift again and waited for his next test. No physical attacks came, but another intruding thought came into his mind once more.

"You are a very talented individual, and you deserve better than this. You should be able to defeat Ganondorf easily, so why tolerate this nonsense?"

Mewtwo let the intrusions slide off of him effortless, and when Rauru sent a punch only an instant after the thought had entered his mind, he heard it coming and dodged it effortlessly.

"Excellent, now are you ready for-" Rauru said, and suddenly kicked at Mewtwo's now standing form for an even more unexpected surprise attack.

Mewtwo was almost caught off guard, but he had managed to stay moderately attuned to the air currents and dodged barely in time. Rauru smiled in satisfaction. Staying silent for the Moment, Rauru decided to leave Mewtwo in the dark for his next test. He stood quietly for five minutes before telepathically intruding on Mewtwo's mind once more.

"You're weak. It's your fault that Kalana died; you watched her die and did nothing. Your cowardice was her demise."

"That's not true!" Mewtwo screamed, turning and charging at Rauru, having completely losing control.

Rauru grabbed Mewtwo's arm and squeezed it with an iron grip, and then with his other hand slapped Mewtwo across the face as hard as he could.

"While that message may have been untrue, it is true that your emotional control is still weak! If one thought like that can cause you to fly off of the handle so wildly then Ganondorf will have fun batting your corpse around the Sacred Realm after he rips you to shreds! You need to learn to control your emotions or else you are doomed to fail!" Rauru bellowed.

Now Mewtwo's anger was completely provoked, he lashed back verbally at Rauru like a lion. "You would have the same problems as I do if you had lived through emotional trials as mind warping as I have! You do not know half of what I feel and it is insulting that you think that I could toss them aside so easily!"

"You're a complete and total fool!" Rauru yelled. "The point of this exercise is for you to let your emotional strain go, and now you are clinging to them like a security blanket! You have learned nothing from this lesson! You are letting your emotions control you and then self justifying them as a part of you! Unless you can toughen up or let them pass, then you and the rest of our world are doomed to the hands of your dark side!" Rauru shouted.

"I have had enough of people belittling what I feel!" Mewtwo screamed at the top of his voice. "I don't care what happens anymore, I just want to be away from you and all the rest of this!"

And suddenly Mewtwo disappeared out of the Chamber of Sages, teleported to only he knows where.

A/N: Well, it was certainly not as exciting as the last chunk, but there was a lot of intense emotion! What will happen to our Hero now, three days will pass before he will know it and things will suddenly progress to an all out climax to finish the book within the next two or three chunks. Expect an all out, mind blowing conclusion before August as I wrap up all the last few loose and in the coming two-three chunks. Remember, reviews are always appreciated far more than you can imagine!
